Photographer for
Politics, Corporate
& Reportage

I cover party conferences, delegation trips and congresses, and I photograph people in business, industry and science. Across Germany and abroad, discreet and delivered fast.

About me

Steffen Böttcher

Since 2017 I have covered election campaigns, party conferences and delegation trips, and I photograph for companies, universities and newsrooms.

Good pictures happen when nobody notices the camera. I work quietly, plan with press offices and protocol teams, and deliver a selection that is ready to use: for press, social media, annual reports or websites.

Frequently asked questions

Good to know

Do you also work outside Berlin?

Yes. I work all over Germany, regularly in North Rhine-Westphalia, Bavaria and Hesse, and I also travel abroad.

What does an assignment cost?

That depends on duration, location and how the pictures will be used. After a short conversation you will get a fixed quote with no hidden costs.

How quickly do we get the pictures?

For press and social media I deliver a first selection on the day of the event if you wish. The full series follows as agreed.

How may we use the photos?

We set out the usage rights in the quote to suit your needs: press, website, social media, print or annual report.

Do you also offer video?

Yes, I also offer video. Please get in touch to discuss the details.

Do you also work in a team?

Yes. I am very well connected and can handle larger productions with up to ten photographers and editors.
